they are on separate partitions, so delete a partition using your hard drive cd/floppy or use a 3rd party program like partition magic, then convert the deleted ones where you like.

Going off the top of my head here...

Before nuking C where 98 sits edit the boot.ini file (on your 2K partition) to point to the new partition info after removing 98.  There is another file Bootsect.dos I think that you can delete at that point as well.  Sorry but I am away from my system at the moment.  There is more to consider though.  Take a look at this and read carefully before you just remove the partition.
